My children had a great night! My oldest knew exactly where to go when he saw Pilot the Eagle sitting outside the event and ran right in. They had fun and begged to go back when we left. It was so nice to know they were not far away and well taken care of during our event.

Military Ball Child Watch in Lexington Park, MD
SOCW travels south on MD-5 through Waldorf into St. Mary's County and reaches Lexington Park in roughly 1 hour 15 minutes from Clinton.
Navy and Marine Corps families stationed at Pax River tend to be young and in the thick of the years when kids are everywhere: toddlers, grade-schoolers, the full spread. When ball season arrives and both parents want to be in that room, SOCW brings a fully staffed child watch with structured activities, strict sign-in and sign-out, and the SOCW Heroes on site so the whole command can dress up and attend without anyone sitting one out.
Military Balls are formal, once-a-year events that deserve your full attention. Special Ops Child Watch deploys a licensed, vetted team to a dedicated space inside the venue so your children are close, cared for, and engaged in their own themed celebration while you attend yours. Every staff member is background-checked and First Aid/CPR certified. Kids get structured activities, take-home keepsakes, and a USDA-approved snack buffet. Event coordinators get a team that arrives staged, uses the space efficiently, and resets it clean when the evening ends.
